i have found a method to stop a bad trip the instant it begins , this method may or may not work for you . its real simple , if i feel even slight fear or anxiety during a trip , i become confrontational and say things like " fuck you great mushroom spirit , you aint so tough . if you were you wouldnt be trying to bully or intimidate me from having a great trip " this actually works wonders for me . try it for yourself if you like , or not . im beyond caring , i am the alien . haaaa

I've used that same method in the past too. It works well but I wouldn't ever speak to the mushrooms like that, I respect them too much.
I consider mushrooms to be teachers and friends. When I feel things are going too fast or not as I want them to I'll usually chuckle and say something along the line of "hey buddy slow down, give me a moment to adapt and then just keep going"

I have done this too. But it stopped the trip altogether. Now I keep pictures of naked ladies handy, they work better.

mushies for me are the ultimate paradox , part of me thinks they are sinister ; but then again they have taught me to be more positive and an overall better person . its insane .

Yeah man, whenever i start seeing bad shit on LSD i say "fuck it show me what you got!" and look straight into it. After a while the the shit changes to good stuff. As said many many times before, confront the shit. I know it wont go away if you look at it for just 30 mins but it wont be as scary anymore. And eventually it will go away and change...
One thing that scared me was when i looked into the mirror and saw myself infront of demons and zombies. At first i thought im what they are, evil. But then i continued looking and i saw myself as a demon-slayer.

I've done a similar technique on both LSD and mushrooms and I've found it to be very effective. You can almost 'control' your trip! It does take a certain level of experience to keep your head above the water enough to think those coherent thoughts, however.

The best thing is lay down in bed and close your eyes while on mushrooms. I fucking LOOOOVE that. And eat an orange
really though.... make fucking damn sure you have oranges on hand.

you're fighting yourself, not the mushroom. the substance (any psychedelic) is just a tool to "let you see things as they really are", as someone famous said once. If your mind present you with something you perceive as difficult you should try to work on that issue, not try to alienate it!... its merely a tool to break down some fences or barriars in your brain and let information flow more freely trough those channels for a limited amount of time. the trip relies entirely on YOU! thats why set and setting is really key. /rant over

Yes, just laying down and closing your eyes can be a great ride in itself. The first and only time I did acid i just let things go crazy in my head by laying down on the couch and resting my eyes. I saw a wheel of animations bombarding me and it was like a comic strip that kept going towards me and shit was popping out of it and grabbing at my attention and all these cartoon dicks kept appearing and going towards and then below me. Too fucking awsome/funny, but as I kept my eyes closed the whole visual just turned into a yellow and blue striped rotating spiral like you see in old hypnotists, such a stereotypical psych haha, and paterns on the wall n carpet too.
With mushrooms my closed eyes were very architectural and less patterny. Ive never had it start to turn bad ever really but i have been overwhelmed and then I just tell myself well make the best of this cause its going to pass in an hour or so.

I've done that before. It works like a charm. I actually like doing it when things even out and become peaceful. "Is that all you got? Really?"
Hah I remember one time I was tripping, the first time after a REALLY intense one. It's hard to explain, but I was laying on the ground, just BEGGING the trip to take me, because it kept teasing me. "Take me you fucker!" I even extended my arms like I was on a crucifix. I realized that the trip couldn't hurt me, it was actually a really amazing experience. I was laying on a towel by a lake. I can't really explain what was going on, even though I wasn't really that out of it. I just wanted the trip to take me, it was just teasing me...
